luck stirring but what lights on my shoulders;
no sighs but of my breathing; no tears but of
my shedding. 104
Tub. Yes, other men have ill luck too. An-
tonio, as I heard in Genoa,—
Shy. What, what, what? ill luck, ill luck?
Tub. —hath an argosy cast away, coming 108
from Tripolis.
Shy. I thank God! I thank God! Is it true?
is it true?
Tub. I spoke with some of the sailors that 112
escaped the wrack.
Shy. I thank thee, good Tubal. Good news,
good news! ha, ha! Where? in Genoa?
Tub. Your daughter spent in Genoa, as I 116
heard, one night, fourscore ducats.
Shy. Thou stick'st a dagger in me: I shall
never see my gold again: fourscore ducats at a
sitting! fourscore ducats! 120
Tub. There came divers of Antonios creditors
in my company to Venice, that swear he cannot
choose but break.
Shy. I am very glad of it: I'll plague him; 124
I'll torture him: I am glad of it.
Tub. One of them showed me a ring that he
had of your daughter for a monkey.
Shy. Out upon her! Thou torturest me, 128
Tubal: it was my turquoise; I had it of Leah
when I was a bachelor: I would not have given
it for a wilderness of monkeys.
Tub. But Antonio is certainly undone. 132
Shy. Nay, that's true, that's very true. Go,
Tubal, fee me an officer; bespeak him a fortnight
115 Where? in Genoa?; cf. n.
134 fee . . . officer: engage a sheriff's officer for me
